2010 Map of Tuttle

About this map

South Fork Republican River cuts a subtle path across this portion of Kit Carson County, defining the drainage patterns of an otherwise strictly gridded agricultural landscape. The area is marked by the site of Tuttle (historical) in the northeastern corner, a location that once served as a local focal point along the upper reaches of Spring Creek. The map reveals a highly organized township and range system, where early twentieth-century section lines have evolved into a network of thoroughfares such as County Road HH and County Road 30. This structured geography reflects the late-stage development of the High Plains, where water sources like the Republican River dictated the placement of original settlements and the subsequent layout of rural infrastructure.
